No disrespect and each to their own choices and likes / dislikes
The hobby is becoming so high tech and so autonomous that I think it is taking away the challenge and fun away ( just a bit ) only my thoughts
I like to keep some sort of “hands on approach”
I like tinkering
I’ll never fully automate my rig, I like to check on how things are running , adjust things here’s and there , check focus etc...and enjoy the night sky whilst I’m out there whether it’s 30 degrees stinking hot or 5 degrees freezing
I even do semi auto meridian flips and realign the object manually using the last sub on the previous side and zoom in to align stars etc..
Old school I suppose ( old fart )
My kids who are in their late 30s and very IT savvy say Dad why don’t you use this and use that , it will make things easier for you . My answer is “I don’t want easy”
